NO DELAYS FOR HIGH LICENSE.

The vote in the Assembly on Tuesday shows
that the IIigl-Lcense bill has enough Rcpub-
lcan votes TO pass it, 1t should therefore TO
pressed forward as quickly as parliamentary
rules will permit, and should be guarded care
fully against obstructive tactics on the part OF
its antagonists. Tho Democrats are now thor
oughly committed to the open defence of the
Rum Power, and this being the case, they VIII
naturally resort to whatever devices long
familiarity with trickery may suggest. Tho
Republicans who were absent when tho vote
was taken on the third reading will do well
to make up their minds, If they have not already
done so. TO fall into line with the siXty-five
members who supported the bill on Tuesday.
1t is a Republican measure. and the Democrats
have shown their appreciation of the fact by
handing in their unconditional submission TO
the saloons and taking their positions as tho
humble servants and legislative agents OF tho
latter. The event of Tuesday was encouras
ing. 1t was in a significant sense a crossing
of the Rubicon for several members. But they
have put themselves on the safe and the rising
side and they need have no fear for the con-
sequences.
There must. however, be no hesitation. The
peope demand this measure, and the Repno-
licans arc expected to use tho predomnancc
they hold in the Legislature to make it law
II, when they have done their utmost, the
Democrats choose to shoulder the responsible
ity OF blocking reform through executive ac-
ton. the issue will he squarcly made the &C
countability will no longer be doubtful, and all
practical friends Of temperance will sec the way
before them clear TO remedial action in ule
future The death-kncll OF Third -Partyism
will be sounded by the contamination OF the
Republican duty in regard to High License
The rd-party ProhibItonsts Will no longer
he able to point to real or apparent Republican
faithlessness concerning temperance REFORM
and therefore their occupation will DO gone
The best thing that can happen for the National
as well as the State Republican party is It's
committa to this policy. Public opinion Is
ripo for action on the drink evil. II the poll
ticians do not understand this they will be
made TO realize it disagrccably. The Re
publican record at Albany this year opens
well. but it must DO continued and com
pcted on the same moral level and on the
final passage Of the High License bill IN the
Assembly there should not be found one Re
rublican vote on the wrong side OF the tally
list.

MULTIPLEX PERSONALITY.

A dispatch from NOuistown. Penn. gives
an account Of a curious case which has come
10 light there, and which, if the circumstances
arc as stated. probably belongs 20 a class which
has been growing for some years with rather
disquieting speed. Some two months ago d
stranger came to Non1stown, rented q store.
stocked 1t. and began business. There was
nothing in his conduct or bearing TO attract
attention, and ne lived with perfect qulctncss

state. asking where he was. Then ne declared
That he knew nothing of his sojourn in Norris
town that Inc was Rhode Island clergyman ;
that two months ago he left his homo on some
business, drew some money out OF the bank.
and then lost recollection until ne found him
self in the Pennsylvania town. Not many years
ago q story like this would have been secuted
save by few students in advance Of the
lime. Now, thanks chiefly TO tho investiga-
ions Of French medical science, it is generally
known that what MIR. Alfred Myers happily
terms "multiplex personality" Is a genuine
though extremely perplexing phenomenon. Drs
Charcot, Richer, Azam, Ribot. Voisin. Cam,isct
etc have for q number Of years studied this
class of cases and in the records Of tho now
historical ones of Zelda X. and Louis V. arc

THE PLOT AGAINST THE CZAR.

The plot against the Cars life rcvivcs in
tcrest in Nihi!ism, the most mysterious force
in Underground Europe. In comparison with
the assassination Of Alexander H. the explosion
in the Winter Palace and the mine underneath
the Imperial railway train. the students con-
spiracy is a trivial affair The bombs were
ingeniously contHved for the purpose OF con
cealment but there was lack of nerve and
self-possession on the part OF the aSsassins.
They went about their work clumsily and at
tracted attention in the streets. The two stu
dents do not appear to have been supported on
the ground by group of accompliccs The st.
Petersburg police invariably make a large num-
Der of arrests after a Nihist plot. since it is
considered necessary to reassurc tho Car by
the display Of unwontcd vigilance and activity.
1t is reported that there have been over 200
arrests already but this is not evidence OF the
existence of O widc-rcaching conspiracy. The
details of the plot furnished IN the cable dis
patches indicate that the students had few &c
complies and that their eXecrablc enterprise
was neither wellplanncd nor boldly executed.
If it proves anything. il is the fact that Mill
ism as revolutionary force is less formidable
than it was.
The idea has prevailed during the last decade
that Russia is honeycombed with social and
political revolt This notion has been fostered
by "Stepniak." Krapotkin and other Nbillsts.
whose writings have been extensively read in
Western Europe and America. 1t is probable.
however. that the dangers arising from Social
list propagandism and conspiracies In Russin
i,avo been greatly exaggerated. Sir Charles
| Dixie, in his series of papers In 1.-THE Fort
nightly Review" makes this significant ne
mark There can be no doubt that in Russia
in spite of tho recent so-called cadet and staff
conspiracy, the general belief Of the best in
formed is that at this moment Austria and Ger
many have more TO fear from Socialism than
Russia has from NIhilistic conspiracies.' In
view of the rapid increase OF the Socialist vote
in Berlin and other German centres of population
and Of the activity of revolutionary agitators
in Vienna this appears TO be reasonable
statement. Tho great mass Of the population
OF European Russia is as patriotic as 1t is ig-
norant. Loyalty to the Car has for theagricult-
ural Glasses oil tho force Of o religious super
sdtion. New ideas make no progress outside

The Rhode Island Republicans have Wisely
renomnatcd by reclamation all the lncumpch"
of the State offices. Concerning their IT,
election there is hardly room for doubt. Inc
platform is a sound one. 1t favors, among
other things, Civil Service reform, the enforce
ment Of the prohlbitory law, the repeal OF the
registry tax provision in the State Consatu-
ton. and the enactment Of strict laws to secure
the integrity of the ballot-box. The conven-
ton approved the action of the United states
Senate in passing resolution looking to the
equalization of the suffrage. The country can
not with safety disregard the fact that one vote
in the South, under existing methods equals
ten votes In the North. The record OF the
Republican party in its administration OF the
affairs of Rhode Island has been so cmincntly
advantageous to the Commonwealth that the
party can confidently appeal to the people for
continued support.

companies to abandon the Hanged rail now IN

The reported spreading of the cholera north
ward and westward in South America is not
reassurlng intelligence. If the disease finds a
lodgment in Central America, the danger OF Its
reaching this country will be greatly increased.
Health Officer Smith seems to be alert to the
danger, but it behooves the public authorities
of this and other cities to be prepared for any
emergency.

There are evidently some desperate criminals
loose Just now in New-York and Brooklyn.
The murder of citizen of Brooklyn in his own
house by burglar. and the attack almost IN
daylight on a young lady in this city by foot
pad. are crimes OF unusual audacity. The worst
of it is that the police seem to be helpless IN
both cases and offer no hope of arresting the
perpetrators of these crimes. This is far from
reassuring to the public.

An underground road from the City Hall to
the Grand Central Depot through Elm-st. and
Fourth-ave. would be good thing for the city.
But because some persons contemplate such an
undertaking, in case Elm-st is wldened' that
fact ought not TO be an argument for opposing
the improvement, which should be judged on
it's merits irrespective of the proposed railroad.
The more underground roads the city has, the
better, providing the rights of the public are
properly guarded
